Colossuss Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) Hang on, does that let you keep the CD changer as well? Just add's another mode called "AUX"?

Colossuss Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 It won't show text if its just an aux connection, that only puts thought audio, you need an intravee if you want text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer330i Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I got one from BMW for £56 and fitted it myself it was really easy to do This looks awesome - do you have any details on this? e.g. will it work on the TV/sat nav units, is it easy to fit? any help on this would be greatly appreciated - looks like a great solution. Does it affect the CD changer or sat nav, by this I mean do you sacrifice one of them to have this? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
